Every state where a business is registered for sales tax comes with its own portal, its own login, and its own way of surfacing notices, balances, and deadlines. The more states you're in, the more places something can quietly go wrong.
Third-party registration is how Kintsugi keeps watch across all of them, without taking control away from you.
When Kintsugi registers your business in a state, or imports an existing registration, that access lets our team monitor the account for notices, balances due, missing filings, and rejected payments. Many of these issues don't come with an obvious alert. Catching them early means fixing them before they turn into penalties.
Your credentials stay with you
Your login credentials are saved to your dashboard when a registration is completed or imported, and you can view or update them anytime. Nothing is locked away on our side.
This matters. Some businesses come to Kintsugi after a previous provider never gave them their own credentials. Without access to your own state accounts, you can't see what's happening in them or file a return yourself if you need to.
Our approach is simple: you're responsible for your data, and Kintsugi is responsible for the actions we take on it. We support that with help articles, step-by-step guides, and direct support.
Automation with flexibility
When a filing needs special handling, you can pause it to resume on a chosen date, pause indefinitely while a support ticket is opened, or skip it and file yourself. If you file on your own and later spot an error, our account visibility means we can still review it and offer to file an amended return.
More visibility with Kintsugi
You shouldn't have to choose between automation and control. Third-party registration lets Kintsugi keep a close eye on every jurisdiction you operate in, while you keep full access to your own compliance data.
